OCI Simplifies Your Procurement Process

Efficiency is a cornerstone of a company's success, and this statement not only applies to the engineering or energy consumption of machines and systems. It also applies to the procurement process, as the automation of certain procedures is also gaining in importance in this field. The automated procurement process, for instance, is possible thanks to OCI (Open Catalog Interface).

This standardized interface for catalog data allows you, as customers, to swap data sets been your procurement system and the electronic catalogs from Bosch Rexroth. OCI is the link that connects your goods management system directly to our eShop. Thanks to this direct connection, you can order items from us straight from your system. The products selected by you are placed in the eShop shopping basket and are transferred to your goods management system once the transaction is complete. The order is then sent at a later point, either via EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) or fax, as you prefer.

You always have access to the latest prices and delivery times thanks to the connection with the Bosch Rexroth eShop

All vital information, such as material numbers and descriptions, quantity, prices and delivery time, relating to the items you have chosen are automatically transferred to your procurement system

Sources of errors are reduced as fewer manual entries are necessary

As a general rule, no changes are required to your procurement system in order to implement OCI

EDI – Speedy and Reliable Order Transfers

Automate your order processes with EDI

Manually processing orders is often time consuming and prone to errors. However, thanks to Electronic Data Interchange (EDI for short), you as a customer can process your orders using an electronic, standardized process. In order for you to do this, any data related to the order is automatically sent from your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to us in a defined message format; the notification is sent using a previously specified communication channel. As soon as the data is received, it is then automatically converted into the required target format and sent for further processing. You will therefore receive immediate confirmation of your order, as well as the current delivery time.

Bosch Rexroth supports the following standards for communication using EDI:

OFTP2, AS2, OFTP-ISDN, TeleboxX.400, SFTP, https und eMail.
